Wow- I feel seen. Recently did this with my much beloved in laws after a whole lot of denial and ‘don’t ask, don’t tell.’ It both hurts and heals. I was naive about their response as well. They said we were destroying the family and then threw in the prodigal son garbage. The level of vitriol and awful that our confronting them revealed was unbelievable.
